Disease Notification During Specific Time of Day

[jucoking]

Hello all, I'm having issues scripting a message that displays on-screen at 6am and a different message that displays on-screen at 6pm. The messages need to display everyday and it doesn't matter where the player is located.

 

I was fiddling around with the sanguinaris vampiris script and came across something that looked like what I was trying to accomplish, so I hijacked it and modified it for my own use (luckily, my mod requires a similar disease, so I can just tack the message script onto the magic effect).

 

Here is the script I was trying to use (that won't compile):

 

Scriptname DayNightMsg extends activemagiceffect

Event OnUpdateGameTime()

If GameHour.GetValueInt() == 6
00CV2_MorningSunMessage.Show()
EndIf

If GameHour.GetValueInt() == 18
00CV2_HorribleNightMessage.Show()
EndIf

EndEvent

Message Property 00CV2_MorningSunMessage Auto

Message Property 00CV2_HorribleNightMessage Auto

GlobalVariable Property Gamehour Auto

GlobalVariable Property GameDaysPassed Auto

 

 

 

Here is the error I get when attempting to compile this script:

 

Starting 1 compile threads for 1 files...

You can't start variable/property/etc names with a digit. Instead of "00CV2_MorningSunMessage" use "CV2_MorningSunMessage" and so on.

Thank you for the prompt reply. I followed your advice and the script compiled successfully, however, the notification doesn't appear during testing. I even replaced the

 

"message.show()"

 

with a

 

"debug.messagebox()"

 

and it compiles fine but doesn't call the script in-game. It really doesn't matter how the message appears during play, just as long as it's in the HUD somewhere. Any help would be much appreciated.
